"It's just such a simple matter that takes so long. If I hadn't called you today to urge you, how long would you have delayed it?"
Lilith listened quietly to Madam Sophia's reprimand without saying a word in rebuttal.
She did remember her purpose at the beginning.
But didn’t he encounter the incident between Baiji and Xia when he just came back?
Then her attention was diverted.
Compared with her mother's instructions, Lilith's biggest concern was obviously whether she could successfully have an affair with Char.
It wasn't until she succeeded last night that she finally put her mind at ease.
It was at this time that she received a call from her mother and remembered the real purpose of this trip.
While listening to the scolding on the other end of the phone, Lilith heard a caring voice behind her.
"What's wrong? What does Aunt Ya want to talk to you about?"
Xia stood at the door of the balcony and expressed his concern silently.
The sound coming from the phone was not loud, and Lilith didn't know how much Xia heard.
She was a little embarrassed at this time.
After saying something quickly to Sofia, he hung up the phone.
Facing Char again, she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.
"Um... that is..."
Lilith's eyes wandered, and she seemed very guilty.
As early as when the phone rang, Xia Ya noticed that her expression was not right.
He was sitting next to Lilith at the time, and with a quick glance, he saw the words on the phone screen.
Xia was a little surprised, but he also realized something.
Then Lilith said she wanted to answer the phone and went to the balcony alone.
From the angle of the restaurant, Char could see the expression on Lilith's face.
It seems like he feels guilty about doing something wrong.
He couldn't help but feel even more curious, so he took the initiative to step forward and show concern.
Lilith was very touched by his concern.
But now Lilith didn't know whether she should reveal her purpose.
In the past, she would definitely stand firmly on the side of her mother.
Whatever she has to do on her own, she will do it.
But now things are a little different.
She knew that this matter was very important to her mother.
But I also know that this may not be a good thing for Xia Ya.
So she was hesitating whether to do it or not.
Char noticed her hesitation, and the concern on his face became a little more genuine.
"What's going on?"
"Is there anything we can't talk about?"
"Of course, if it's a private matter within your family and it's inconvenient for me to ask, I can choose not to ask."
When Lilith heard the last sentence, she quickly shook her head to deny it.
"It's not that I can't say it."
I always feel that his words seem a little sad.
It seems like I'm unfamiliar with it.
After the words came out of her mouth, Lilith bit her lip and decided to confess.
"It's mother."
"This time when I go back to school, I won't stay for a long time."
"She gave me a task."
"I want to invite you to visit the Gunn family's territory again."
"She said that as long as she told you that the appointed time was approaching, you would know what it was."
When Lilith said this, there was a look of worry on her face.
When my mother said these words, the expression on her face was very strange.
She knew that her mother might be in trouble.
And she needs Xia to help her solve this problem.
Although Sophia did not explain it very clearly, Lilith was at least a witness to the incident.
Although she didn't know the whole story, she knew the part that she had participated in.
About my mother’s illness.
Also about her near-fatal experience.
When her mother came to her for help, she was unable to help Sophia.
This made Lilith blame herself for a long time.
Later, I heard from my sister that it was because of Char's intervention that our mother was able to escape danger.
This time, it was divine punishment for past blasphemy.
The Gunn family’s bloodline has been branded with the mark of God.
This brand is God’s punishment.
In the previous days, the divine punishment had not yet arrived, so the family members could still act normally.
But recently the atmosphere has become increasingly tense.
Lilith understood that her mother's invitation this time was to ask Char to help the family overcome difficulties.
Of course, Lilith also wanted to successfully survive this disaster.
But...is it okay to rely on Char?
She knew that her fiancé was very strong, and the people around him were very strong.
But this kind of strength is always a layer away from Lilith.
She was afraid of him, knowing that Char was now a strong man.
But if you think carefully, where exactly does his strength lie?
Lilith couldn't figure it out.
It seems that his strength comes from the fact that there are so many strong girls around him.
Lilith was a little worried that Xia would be injured in this incident.
If he was not involved in this matter, with Xia's identity, he did not have the blood of the Gun family, and this matter could not implicate him.
But if he gets involved, he will definitely be affected.
So Lilith was conflicted.
Hoping to be saved by him; but also worried about endangering his safety.
After Lilith finished searching, she looked at Xia worriedly.
The order given by my mother before was that Char must be brought back no matter what, no matter what method is used.
But now she was about to hand the choice over to Char.
He can choose to go back with him, or he can choose to refuse.
Xia was a little surprised.
It's not a matter of unexpected divine punishment.
When he attended Madam Sophia's birthday party, he knew that this matter was not over.
It has broken out now, and whether it is fast or slow is still within expectations.
What surprised him was Lilith's attitude.
Although in some ways she is still as perverted as ever.
But in other ways, she does seem to be getting better.
Even such things will be revealed to oneself.
"Aren't you worried that I might refuse?"
"This is a troublesome matter after all."
"If you go back alone, you will be punished by the family, right?"
Lilith nodded, admitting it frankly.
"Yes."
"Before I left, my mother gave me a military order, requiring me to bring you back."
“But I don’t want to do that.”
"I hope you can make your own decision on this matter."
"I want you to go back, but I also don't want you to go back."
"So you'd better make the decision yourself."
Xia couldn't help but be moved when he saw Lilith's expression.
It really seems to be getting better.
Although she still needs to atone for the wrong things she did in the past.
But...it seems unnecessary to be too harsh on her.
If she could keep her current mentality and thoughts.
He smiled.
"When to set off?"
After Sophia's birthday party, he knew that he would go to the Gunn family once more before and after the coming of divine punishment.
Whether it is because of his relationship with the Gunn family, or because of the undercurrents behind these interests.
Lilith's heart beat faster as she looked at Xia's smile.
A dreamy smile appeared unconsciously on his face.
From the Seven Shields Academy to the Gunn Family, this was not the first time that Char had walked this path.
Bai Ji drove through the city. There were not many people on the road. It looked much more desolate than the last time she came here.
But that's not the most remarkable thing.
As long as you are in the Gunn family's territory, in this space separated from the outside world, no matter where you are, you can see the fantastic scenes in the sky.
The sky was a gray-blue chaos, with no sun, no moon, no stars, and no planets.
And above this chaos, there is a huge white funnel.
It seems to be a funnel made of clouds. If you look closely, you can see the clouds rolling, as if they are roaring at something, like a rough sea.
Such a strange scene is enough to shock people at just one glance.
Even when Bai Ji saw this scene for the first time, she couldn't help but be shocked and almost forgot to walk.
When Xia stepped out of the teleportation array, he also looked up for a long time.
The funnel has been in the sky since the day of Lady Sophia's birthday party.
